Budget estimate

$30,000 – $70,000

No specific contract value is listed. An armed guard in Virginia typically commands a salary of $45‑$65 k annually, plus overhead, benefits, and contractor profit margins. Assuming a one‑year contract, the total budget to the vendor could range from roughly $30,000 (minimum staffing and overhead) to $70,000 (full‑service, higher‑rate guard). Factors influencing the final amount include guard experience, required equipment, liability insurance, and any overtime or holiday coverage.
